The reentry permit kept your GC alive. It has no meaning whatsoever for naturalization.

Your residence has been broken by the trip abroad of over 180 days, unless you can show to the satisfaction of the examiner that residency was not disrupted. THings like having kept a home in the US, not having accepted employment abroad, etc. help.

If in doubt, discuss your situation with a good immigration lawyer.

No. Your travel prior to the five years is not relevant at all for citizenship. You won't even be asked about it. 

[PC_Prash]

Any travel prior to the 5 year time limit is irrelevant. So, don't mention it on your application and if asked during the interview process you have the required proof. My disclaimer: I'm no immigration lawyer, just a guy that follows the instructions for the N400 form to the letter :P
